Being that Ramadan had recently started, I assumed this was post iftar, the evening break in the fast and peeps were coming for drinks and desserts. The drink menu is on a display but it doesn't mention what flavors are associated in some of their custom drinks. I was split between a Habibi, coconut or Biscoff flavored lattes. A conversation with the barista pushed me towards the aforementioned and they said they could lighten the sweetness. I don't remember the details of exactly what gives its "Middle Eastern flair", the flavors worked and kept me awake for the drive. Judging from the many orders being called out, I picked the most popular. If you dig chill spaces to work & or meet new peeps, seek out details on their IG page. They host lively events to discover their new menu items and or trivia nights engaging popular topics Ie Star Wars, Marvel, and more.

I was overly disappointed with the lack of food and drink options compared to the other location. We ordered karak chai, lemon breeze passion refresher, and biscoff cheesecake. The lemon breeze passion refresher was good. The cheesecake wasn't too sweet. Service was friendly. The experience overall was kind of meh to me. I've been to many Middle Eastern cafes so this location was like one and done for me.

Now that I got that out of the way, the owner is so so friendly. We had a Turkish coffee while deciding on which Turkish delights we would have. All of them were really good and I can't wait to go back for more. I thought the box would last us a week but it was barely half full by the time we made it home! It's such a pleasant experience and there is so much to learn if you haven't had any of these treats or the coffee (and how it's made) that it is worth the visit just for this, and the interaction with the owner, of course!

They have done a great job to set up the lobby have three areas with super nice benches around the wall. Perfect for the group chatting. I tried the Qishr for the first time. Light than a regular coffee, more like tea body. With some ginger taste and very little sweetness. It took about 10 mins to make. I liked it a lot. Also got the bird's nest which I highly recommend.

The service.. the girls were friendly... The guy not so much. He just took the order without a smile or thank you and kept moving along. I ordered a pistachio matcha mostly because the pistachio was homemade and I love pistachios and flavors. The drink was made pretty quickly and was nice with a nutty balance. Open free parking lot with plenty of parking in the shopping area near IKEA. If I'm in the area I would return.

I ordered at the drive-thru window. Staff were friendly and service was quick. I agree with others that $9 is on the pricey side for a 16oz drink. The banana bread flavoring tasted good but it could have used more banana. Still, it was really creamy with a nice ratio of sweetness. I'd be interested to try other options the next time I'm around.

Sandwiches and pastries are also available. Sandwiches are served with a side of chips. As I am unable to have bread currently due to dietary restrictions, they were able to make my sandwhich as a lettuce wrap. They are a little pricey and charged a service fee to pay by card. Only one person was working at the time of visit, so it took a while to get the sandwiches. I also had a black coffee. Very cozy and plenty of parking.

I ordered a small latte and was VERY pleased at the size of the cup: petite as a small should be! Which means that the large is not unrealistically gigantic like most other coffee spots. People behind the counter were friendly and conversational, which is a plus in times like these where everyone is slow and stupid and mean. Got the chai cake because it is so similar to the autumn spice cakes I remember growing up with on the east coast. Which reminds, the Midwest SUCKS, so this whole little happy coffee experience was very pleasing to me. Ideal. All their homemade take-away items looked pretty incredible, too. No complaints!

First time at Nectar this morning, I just moved into the area and honestly, I probably won't be…read moreback. Hear me out, from what I gather the food is pretty good here. I got the avocado toast, but too much feta on it I took most of it off. Other than that, it's good. I spent $31 total not realizing the avocado toast came with two slices instead of one, the price made just a little more sense. I also got the chocolate chia pudding with strawberries and bananas on top, that was good, hard to mess that up though. And finally I got a pistachio matcha latte. I will say yumm to that one. Now, when I go to a coffee shop to sit and enjoy, the ambiance matters so much to me, especially for when I go alone like I did today. The music they're playing? Hotel lobby music. It's fine, eh, not the worst but not enjoyable at all either. I'd suggest for them to get a better playlist asap. My recommendation is look up chill coffee house music on Spotify or something. It's not hard to make a place more enjoyable, you just have to put in a little more work. Music is so important to us, it sets the mood, enhances your energy levels, your domaine levels. Pay attention to this. This comes to my next point, the furniture? Tacky. It's that cheap furniture with the "gold" legs to make the place "look" fancy. The chairs are so thin and uncomfortable actually. It's funny when a place decorates a place "simply" and think it looks good when you can tell no real direction was implied. Did they ask themselves "how do I want my customers to feel when they sit in here?" Doubt it. Don't get me started on the tacky pink telephone booth that looks like Legally Blondes Wedding Planner threw up on it. It makes no sense for the space. The sugar caddies on the table are ugly. The white wall with the green letters spelling NECTAR needs color, needs paint. It's boring. Add some real life, love, and vibes to the place, and you'll have a solid joint. Ask yourselves the reason for opening a coffee shop in the first place. Was it just for the money, the profit? Makes sense. But did you actually have love for the idea of bringing people together? A love for quality conversations, and good energy, good food and drinks and for people to say things about your creation like "have you been to Nectar before?! Wow it's so good, it's my favorite coffee shop. It's beautiful in there and all of their food and drinks are amazing!" Because I promise you, although your food and drinks seems to be good from I'm reading, you're not people's favorite coffee shop. Do more, do better. With love, Alyssa.
